Musket For Sale - British Colonial Carbine

Price: £500.00

This has been cleaned. I dont think restored is the right word though. Not sure if its an improvement but the action now works and everything is checked over. Better photos to come.

The lock is fully cleaned and working well. The trigger gaurd is a bit loose but the screws are in tight, its just a bit odd.

Really nice gun to hold.

Whilst some of the woodwork is still missing, the whole stock has been checked over and some fairly significant glueing carried out resulting in a solid finish. The stock has been chemically stripped and sanded and given two coats of boiled linceed oil, probably put a few more on.

Hopefully I will get some proper photos up soon.

The original description for this was:

BRITISH COLONIAL CARBINE BASED ON THE ENFIELD. BORDER LINE ENGRAVED LOCK. THE LOCK HAS A GOOD STRONG SPRING, BUT THE HAMMER IS NOT STAYING BACK, POSSIBLY THE SEAR CEASED. SOME WOOD GONE FROM AROUND THE LOCK. 23 INCH BARREL .
